  • Abstract
    Photographic microfilm has become a promising medium for long-term storage of digital data. We present an end-to-end channel model of the whole processing chain including a novel soft-output demodulator for channels with non-Gaussian noise, such as film. The proposed channel model describes the digital microfilm storage channel with good preciseness.
